Dante on Dayton: We hate each other

[xubball93]

“We hate each other,” junior Dante Jackson said. “I don’t think them being first and us picked second has (anything) to do with it. I think they hate us just as much as we hate them. It’s going to be high intensity and the place is going to be packed, so I don’t think that has anything to do with it.”

Nuff said. Get it done, Muskies!

Dante has now shown up big time in back to back games. That is absolutely huge for the team.

well, yeah, I'm not a huge fan of Jackson.

But I do wonder if maybe Lyons received too much playing time (he plays a similar role as Holloway...so is it necessary that he receives so much playing time).. His injury seems to have jump started Jackson.

I don't think so. He contributed. He has to play to get back into full form.

I shouldn't say that Holloway and Lyons play exactly the same role. Lyons does play better D, IMHO. But Holloway does the same type of thing on the offensive side of the ball, but much, much better.

Jackson brings other stuff to the table than Lyons(size, rebounding, shooting (at least now)).

Crawford and Holloway already do a great job slashing to the hoop. Lyon's play just isn't needed as much as Jackson right now.

It always good to see such positive posts after a big win.

I wouldn't say rebounding. On atleast 3 of Chris Johnson's rebounds, Dante was guarding him and literally stood there and watched as Johnson took the o-board. No box out attempt, just stood there watching.

I know i'm nit-picking after a great team and individual performance from Dante... but it definitely has to be addressed.
